Just had a verbal quote given to me.
Bumper Bonnet Side mirrors Strip on boot R17000 to R18000 k With out a doubt anyone getting a new car, the R5000 for the bumper should be first added option extra. My bumper is chipped badly in 3 months of use and I kick myself for thinking I could better use the cash. Re spray and VPS is now R7k, with the risk of poor paint match. |

Go for full panels else it'll look bad. As Iv'e said, I've had the following done: -Full bonnet -Full bumper -Full fenders (excl the bit by the 86 emblem) -Headlights -Indicator & fog lights -Mirrors -Top strip on the rear bumper It was around R7500 if I remember correctly. VPS uses 3M film which is quality stuff. There may be cheaper alternatives but it would probably go yellow within a year or 2.

Forgot to mention - had the same done on my previous car but it had a shorted bonnet and I didn't do full fenders. That cost around R6000(VPS Midrand), so the R7500 at VPS Edenvale wasn't some special price or anything, it's what it's supposed to cost.
R17k really is a ripoff and if it's a VPS franchise they should be reported.

Good idea. I mean if Midrand and Edenvale are charging the same then surely the rest should be the same. It would be funny if the 2 branches with the crazy quotes belonged to the same person.

BTW
You could probably get the whole car vinyl wrapped for close to R20k.
